#41 of 765 New Freestyle by nitromax Jun 29, 2005 (8:28 am)
Just picked up my Redfire AWD SEL last night. I got it with leather, moonroof, reverse sensing and the comfort and safety packages. Ended up paying about $29,500 for it. (about $3300 under MSRP) I was a little dissapointed with the dealer. He didn't appear to have the car prepped for me even though we made the deal on Saturday. I think when he ran out back to transfer plates onto it, he prepped it at that point because he was gone for about 30 minutes or so. Then he delivered it to me with an empty tank of gas...hello!..anybody home? I'm giving Ford another shot at my loyalty here after being burned with an Exploder a few years ago. Don't BLOW it again. Besides that, the car behaves beautifully and I won't hold judgement against a car company for a poor dealer experience. If I have to, I'll take it to another area dealer for it's scheduled maintenance. I'll give this place one more shot to prove themselves...if that fails then I'll lower the hatchet.   Nice car...going for a long drive this weekend and looking forward to it.

Replying to: brian211 (Jun 29, 2005 4:43 am) I think it is worth a try. Don't forget there is 0% financing available, too, so factor that in depending on how important that is to you. Nitromax got his $3,300 below MSRP I got mine for $4,500 below MSRP using th A-Plan (for employee relatives) so there is more room for you to negotiate in my opinion. My advise is to tell them that you are ready to buy today if you can have the car for $29,950 and see what they say. If they say no, then walk away and consider their new offer for a few days and maybe try a different dealer. My experience is that different dealers will make you completely different offers and you can do better by trying a couple if you can stand the car buying "experience". I would make that offer today since it's the end of the month. If that doesn't work, look for any July 4th deals in your area. Good luck. It's a great vehicle.

Replying to: nitromax (Jun 29, 2005 8:28 am) Went to the dealer this morning after talking to the Internet specialist. After quoting a price the salesman brought the invoice. There was a charge for $881.00. I asked him for a breakdown. Also I told him that I wouldn't pay any extras. After 10 mnts. went to see the general manager. They were charging me $185.00 docs. fee and $185.00 for what he said it was an insurance in case that my car was stolen. DAAAA. Told him that he was insulting my intelligence and left. Half an hour later the salesman called and we agree to $23,522.00 for an SEL, FWD with side air bags,AUX climate control,convinience group package. After researching consumers reports, I'm very satisfied. Any comments? What about the rumors of Ford discontinuing this model by 2008. Any news?

One dealer quoted me 29,906 for a awd ltd. So she emailed me sticker. Had a low VIN#. Emailed her back asked whether it was a demo. It was. Seems in the nyc area, most dealers are out of freestyles or are selling their demos. There are no July 4th promos on this car. Its almost as if they they don't exist. Very strange. Explorers, escapes and every other car is being pushed. No mention of freestyles. Back to the drawing board. Maybe a used Lexus rx300.
#45 of 765 Price paid by ranger2001xlt Jul 04, 2005 (10:55 am)
I just bought a Limited AWD for $29,900 (tax and prep charges not included). Has Safety and Power moonroof options only. Stickered for $32,600~ MSRP. Supposedly this is below dealer invoice by about $300 as the dealer showed me the invoice. It was a better price than Xplan invoice price. I was not entitled to a rebate because I took the financing incentive.   This dealer had alot of Freestyles in stock but none with the exact options and colors I was looking for. I could of gotten one for about $750 below invoice if I would of of took one not equipped and not the color I wanted. This deal was for a Freestyle extremely loaded however.   I got a good value for my trade in also. Much higher than the value in Edmunds or KBB.    I think I got a fair deal.
#46 of 765 Ford Family Plan by hedden Jul 13, 2005 (10:31 am)
Anyone know if the Ford Family Plan price is non-negotiable? That's what a dealer told me today, but I didn't push too hard. I'll find out in a week or so when I start contacting other dealers, but was just wondering if anyone had been able to talk them lower.

Replying to: hedden (Jul 13, 2005 10:31 am) I believe the dealer is right. To my knowledge the family price of the car is not negotiable, but some dealers may add other fees to that so there might be some differences between dealers based on the amount of add-on fees.

Replying to: hedden (Jul 13, 2005 10:31 am) As far as I know, it's non-negotiable.   But as you know, ANYTHING is negotiable under the right circumstances. Replies to this message: hedden (Jul 18, 2005 12:05 pm)

Replying to: barnstormer64 (Jul 17, 2005 5:36 am) Following up on my original post.   I have since found out that the GM price is negotiable in some rare cases. I assume the Ford deal is the same. I'll find out soon if my plan to buy a Freestyle comes to fruition in the next couple weeks.
#50 of 765 FORD FAMILY PLAN... by wupwup Jul 19, 2005 (8:55 pm)
What would one expect to pay for a Limited fully loaded around 33K under the family plan? Replies to this message: hedden (Jul 20, 2005 8:23 am) wupwup (Jul 20, 2005 11:28 pm)
